Colleen: progress

[mdlbear]

Colleen's fistula appears to have closed sometime this last week, and her latest infection appears to have (finally) cleared up. She's still on TPN, but with real luck this may be her last week of it. She's scheduled for Remicade (industrial-strength anti-auto-immune drug) Monday, and for hernia surgery at the end of February. Hopefully that can be moved up a week -- she's on the short list for cancellations.

And stay closed!

Indeed. It's actually been closed up since last weekend sometime, so that's encouraging.

Energy for the best outcome to her.

Yesss! Crossing fingers for all the medical stuff to go smoothly and quickly so all y'all can get back to your regularly scheduled lives. You two continue to be in my prayers.
